davmor2Morning All08:39
=== asac_ is now known as asac
davmor2jtholmes: you around?11:07
jtholmesi just got stirring, good morning11:08
davmor2Morning11:09
davmor2jtholmes: when you check Kubuntu can you check that the partitioner is displaying the bars properly again please11:10
jtholmeswill do11:10
davmor2ta11:10
davmor2I'll probably run a test this afternoon11:10
davmor2it's just nice to have 2 confirms :)11:11
jtholmesdoes it matter that i usually manually partition11:11
davmor2jtholmes: no, just check that if you click the check boxes for whole drive and side by side the bars don't vanish11:12
davmor2then go on to manual and hit forward11:12
jtholmeswill do11:14
davmor2ta11:15
jtholmesdavmor2, there appears to be a change in behavior, let me check yesterdays iso and will update12:33
davmor2fader_: I'm off on lunch in a second but I've dropped in a rough here http://testcases.qa.ubuntu.com/System/Translation feel free to add anything :)13:15
fader_davmor2: Cool, I will check that out.  Thanks!13:16
davmor2fader_: what do you think is that alright for a start13:58
fader_davmor2: Yeah... I've been trying to think of how to expand it, but it's a pretty broad topic :)  I think that's a good start anyway.13:59
fader_davmor2: I might make a couple of minor edits to it if you don't mind just to make it a little more understandable for me :)13:59
davmor2fader_: that was the issue I had too13:59
davmor2fader_: knock yourself out14:00
davmor2fader_: only other thing I can think of is to check that characters are properly formed14:03
davmor2for chinese etc14:03
fader_Yeah, good point14:04
fader_I'm also wondering if we ought to add some cases for checking translations in specific apps or in the desktop, but that could get out of hand pretty fast.14:04
davmor2fader_: that's the problem.  My solution is to add this testcase to the end of the installer in all general tests which should then cover every app with one testcase14:06
fader_davmor2: Yeah, that seems reasonable for apps14:06
fader_I'm thinking about adding something to check things like the panel items, the help screen, etc.14:06
fader_as I don't think those are really called out anywhere else or in any of the application tests14:07
davmor2fader_: I think we can add 3 cases installer, general, app.  Installer is obvious, general is over all look of the desktop and apps speaks for itself14:08
fader_Sounds good to me.  I'll take a crack at that in a few minutes14:09
fader_(Right now the environment for server automated tests is on fire so I need to put that out first... bleh)14:09
* davmor2 hands fader_ a fire extinguisher14:10
davmor2powder only don't want sparks flying too :)14:10
fader_Aww, you're no fun :P14:11
jcastroanyone want to run a testing session for ubuntu openweek?14:13
* davmor2 runs for the hills14:16
jtholmesdavmor2, definitely different on the bars14:18
jtholmesthe bars and the partiton options are no longer on the same display14:18
davmor2cool now I got some free time I can start testing but thanks for the update14:18
jtholmesunless you select use the entire disk14:19
jtholmesotherwise the bars and options are on different displays this is not how i remember it14:19
davmor2jtholmes: I'll have a look in a minute14:19
jtholmessure14:20
jtholmesi need to set up  vbox moving from machine to machine is to expensive in time14:20
fader_davmor2: I took a crack at expanding the translation test cases into the three you suggested... let me know what you think :)14:29
davmor2fader_: looks good :)14:30
fader_\o/14:31
stgraberdavmor2: ping16:35
davmor2hello16:35
davmor2stgraber: pong16:35
stgraberdavmor2: do we have wubi for jaunty ?16:35
stgraberdavmor2: I'm installing ubuntu on a windows laptop and it doesn't seem to work on intrepid so would like to try with jaunty16:36
davmor2yes hopefully r118 has gone through which works quite well16:36
stgraberurl ?16:36
davmor2stgraber: http://www.davmor2.co.uk/wubi.exe16:37
stgraberdavmor2: doesn't open ...16:40
stgrabera window appear for half a sec and disappears16:40
davmor2hang on then16:40
davmor2stgraber: http://people.ubuntu.com/~evand/wubi/jaunty/ and click on r118 :)16:41
stgraberk16:41
stgraberexactly the same behavior16:42
davmor2stgraber: hang on I think it might be specific for cd 2 ticks16:43
stgrabercrashes with an ASCII issue, likely utf8 problem16:46
davmor2hello charlie-tca17:02
charlie-tcaHello, davmor217:09
charlie-tcaHow are things looking today?17:09
davmor2kubuntu bad17:10
davmor2everything else should be fine17:10
charlie-tcakubuntu has had a ton of changes this week17:11
davmor2ubiquity is a bit screwy it still works it just doesn't look pretty17:14
davmor2charlie-tca: http://www.davmor2.co.uk/kde4of6.png and kde5of6.png17:15
charlie-tcaoh-h nice!17:17
davmor2pretty hey17:17
charlie-tcaDon't they use the same install as the rest?17:18
charlie-tcaThat does appear to need work17:18
davmor2charlie-tca: backend yes but the frontend is kde17:18
davmor2it should look pretty much the same as ubuntu and xubuntu's installer so on the first screen you should have 2 bars for the partition etc17:20
davmor2charlie-tca: it's cause it uses qt and not gtk for gfx so there are 2 frontends17:23
charlie-tcaThat makes sense to me. Thanks17:23
charlie-tcaI don't do any kubuntu installs, the few times I tried kde I got lost17:24

davmor2meh17:42
davmor2do you know how to do it xp then?17:43
davmor2tea back in a bit17:44
cgregancr3: ping17:45
cr3cgregan: pong17:52
cgregancr3: How are you? I have a question about the certification process17:58
cr3cgregan: sure, shoot17:59
cgreganIs the checkbox version used for cert easy to move around.....I ask because I want to install it on a system that is not connected to ubuntu standard repos.18:00
cr3cgregan: not sure what you mean by "move around"18:00
cgregancr3: it is not installed on our builds so I need to add it without connecting to an online source for the packages18:01
cgregancr3: is it one deb or does is involve several in which case I may want to move it once to a repo18:02
cr3cgregan: each project (checkbox, checkbox-compatibility and checkbox-certification) consist of three packages: the base (eg. checkbox) and a couple interfaces (eg. cli and/or gtk)18:03
cr3cgregan: what are you trying to do exactly?18:03
cr3cgregan: if it's not connected to ubuntu standard, could it be connected to another repo?18:04
cgregancr3: I want to run the certification on a system that it is not installed on by default. And I cannot connect it to the Ubuntu repos to apt-get the packages.....so need to know if I can grab them and install from USB18:04
cr3cgregan: the checkbox packages are now available under a protected repo rather than individual packages, might that be useful for you?18:04
cgregancr3: ah that is better....what is that repo?18:04
cr3cgregan: ah, this needs to be done by usb, right?18:05
cr3cgregan: https://certification.canonical.com/home/compatibility-testing18:05
cgregancr3: Does not need to be...just want to prevent the system from accidentally being corrupted by other packages18:05
cgregancool18:05
cr3cgregan: that's not the repo though, it'll just give you the proper url for the proper release18:06
cr3cgregan: cool! so you should be all set with that repo then, what a fortunate coincidence that I implemented this repo so recently :)18:06
cr3cgregan: in case the https poses a problem, the repo is also available under http18:06
cgregancr3: thanks.....do I need a login to that url?18:06
cr3cgregan: the url I pasted in the channel or the url provided in the compatibility testing page?18:07
cgreganpasted in channel18:07
cr3cgregan: yep, that's private because certification is a commercial service... kinda outside the scope of this channel :)18:08
